Ingredients:

Lunasin: A Cancer-Preventive Soy Peptide

Lunasin is a novel, cancer-preventive peptide whose efficacy against chemical carcinogens and oncogenes has been demonstrated in mammalian cells and in a skin cancer mouse model. Isolated and characterized in soy, lunasin peptide is also documented in barley. Lunasin is found in all of the genotypes analyzed from the US soy germ plasm collection and in commercially available soy proteins. Pilot studies show that lunasin is bioavailable in mice and rats when orally ingested, opening the way for dietary administration in cancer prevention studies. Lunasin internalizes into mammalian cells within minutes of exogenous application, and localizes in the nucleus after 18 hours. It inhibits acetylation of core histones in mammalian cells. In spite of its cancer-preventive properties, lunasin does not affect the growth rate of normal and established cancer cell lines. An epigenetic mechanism of action is proposed whereby lunasin selectively kills cells being transformed or newly transformed by binding to deacetylated core histones exposed by the transformation event, disrupting the dynamics of histone acetylation- deacetylation and leading to cell death.

Lunasin and Reliv Now®

Lunasin and Cancer

Lunasin is a soy peptide that exhibits health promoting characteristics. Scientific evidence indicates that Lunasin is a key component in soy protein responsible for its cholesterol-lowering properties. Lunasin is a unique, 43 chain amino acid peptide found within soybeans. Recent research and development surrounding this soy peptide focuses on promotion of healthy cholesterol levels. In addition to lunasin exhibiting cholesterol lowering properties, research shows it also has cancer preventive properties.

Lunasin - check out the website to learn more about LunasinLunasin and Cholesterol

Lunasin works in two ways to lower serum LDL cholesterol levels. First, it selectively disrupts a necessary step in the production of a key enzyme, HMG-CoA reductase. Lunasin reduces the acetylation of the Histone H3 tail by PCAF (lunasin blocks PCAF's specific binding position at K14), thus reducing the level of expression of the HMG-CoA reductase gene. With levels of the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme lowered and available for the liver to carry out cholesterol synthesis, the liver in turn produces less cholesterol.

Biotech breakthrough produces soy powder with over five times key bioactive component

CHESTERFIELD, Mo., Jan. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Reliv International, Inc. (NASDAQ: RELV), and Soy Labs LLC today announced the creation of LunaRich™, an exclusive soy powder developed at the Missouri Plant Science Center (MPSC). Reliv is adding LunaRich to one of its nutritional supplements and will reveal that product at the Reliv National Conference in Reno, Nv., Feb. 17.

"Biotechnology is vital to Missouri's economic future," said former U.S. Sen. Kit Bond. "Our vision for the Missouri Plant Science Center is to unite our state's scientists, farmers and private-sector job creators to spawn biotech innovation. The collaborative effort between Reliv and Soy Labs is helping us realize that vision by bringing cutting-edge biotech products to market."

LunaRich is a whole soy powder containing five to ten times more lunasin than the industry standard. Lunasin is a peptide found naturally in soy that scientists have identified as the key to many of soy's documented health benefits. These include cholesterol management, heart health and weight loss, among others. LunaRich is the first product to come out of the joint biotechnology research and development partnership that Reliv, Soy Labs and the MPSC formed in August 2011.

Learn how LunaRich helps control cholesterol production in the liver, the source of over 80% of the body's cholesterol.

"A growing body of research shows that the lunasin peptide is one of the most important bioactive components of soy," said Dr. Alfredo Galvez, the MPSC's lead scientific advisor. "In creating LunaRich for Reliv, we have maximized lunasin levels in a soy powder."

Dr. Galvez first discovered lunasin in 1996 during research at UC Berkley to improve the nutritional profile of soy protein. More than 40 peer-reviewed and published studies have documented lunasin's health benefits. Research by 21 institutions supported by 27 public and private funding sources has resulted in nine patents.

The amount of lunasin in soybeans varies significantly based on seed, soil and environment. The MPSC refines specially selected soybeans grown exclusively for Reliv to maximize levels of lunasin in LunaRich.
Learn how LunaRich's refinement process enables maximum lunasin absorption by the body.

"This is a significant step forward for Reliv and for nutrition science. LunaRich is an extraordinary ingredient with solid clinical data behind it," said Dr. Carl W. Hastings, Reliv's chief scientific officer. "As scientists learn more about the mechanisms that make soy a nutritional superfood, Reliv is proud to lead the way in making the fruits of these discoveries available to all."

GlucAffect Blood Sugar Management Formula From Reliv Earns Patent

CHESTERFIELD, Mo., Feb. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Reliv International announced that GlucAffect®, Reliv's blood sugar management supplement, has earned a patent from the US government. Dr. Carl W. Hastings, Reliv's chief scientific officer and creator of GlucAffect, made the announcement as part of opening night at Reliv's 2012 National Conference.


"Earning this patent validates the work our R&D team put into making GlucAffect a superior nutritional approach to blood sugar management," Hastings said. "GlucAffect addresses one of today's biggest health problems — metabolic syndrome — like no other product available. Most importantly, it works."


View GlucAffect clinical trial


In an eight-week, placebo-controlled clinical study of 50 overweight individuals with elevated blood glucose levels, test subjects taking GlucAffect lowered their fasting blood glucose by an average of 30%, moving from elevated glucose levels to healthy blood sugar values. In addition, those individuals taking GlucAffect lost an average of nearly 16 pounds during the eight-week period. No significant glucose lowering or weight loss was found in the control group.


Elevated blood glucose levels and being overweight are key factors in metabolic syndrome, which dramatically increases the likelihood of developing diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and stroke. According to the American Heart Association, metabolic syndrome affects about 35 percent of American adults.


"Metabolic syndrome is a serious, emerging health concern among the medical community, and physicians are more frequently looking to nutrition science to complement traditional care and prescriptive remedies," Dr. Hastings said. "We see the GlucAffect study results and the success stories of GlucAffect consumers as validation of nutrition's important role."


Learn more about GlucAffect

One of GlucAffect's main active ingredients, Pycnogenol®, is an antioxidant clinically shown to help lower high blood glucose levels and provide other health benefits. Additional key ingredients in GlucAffect include omega-3 fish oils, Madeglucyl™, Glucohelp®, Silbinol® and cinnamon, among others.

GlucAffect becomes the sixth patented Reliv nutritional formula, joining Arthaffect® for joint health, Cellebrate® for weight loss, FibRestore® for digestive health, Innergize!® for performance nutrition and ReversAge® for anti-aging nutrition.
